My Students
I work at a school just outside Seattle where my students and families have a strong and diverse community. We have a lot of pride, power, and potential, and we are ready to unlock it. However, it can often be difficult for my students to see the power and potential they have due to stifling systemic obstacles. As stated by one of my colleagues: Whether it is growing up in a historically impoverished neighborhood, attending a Title I middle school where 65%+ received free or reduced-price school lunch or facing many of the life challenges that distract away from achieving one's best, my students have found it hard to see their own value. Despite this, when truly given the resources, my students are ready to change the world.
My students are the kind of kids who restore your faith in humanity and give you hope for the future (yes, I really am that lucky); they just need your support!
When they have what they need, my students create, explore, connect, and analyze in a way that opens my eyes wide every day. They have limitless curiosity and drive; they deserve to explore every inch of it.
My Project
Through this project, I hope to provide a classroom tablet to my students as a technological support! A tablet in the classroom will do a lot to remove many little challenges that prevent learning in the classroom: it will provide a way to organize and search through our classroom library; it will be available as a resources for those students who need online resources, but their own devices are not usable; it will give additional supports through apps, and much more!
Having a device that the entire class can use for educational and organizational support not only shows my students that we are a community, but it also provides them with the feeling of being invested in.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
